I may have missed an older thread, but does our host now etch a serial number on the slab edge? Or is this something else? I don't believe I've seen this before. Picture is kinda hard to see.

    Thank you, I have a bunch of others but just never noticed. Looks like they have been doing this for years. Appreciate the link!

    I’m pretty sure they’ve been doing that for close to 10 years now. If I’m not mistaken, those numbers and letters glow under a black light as well.

    Good to know that it's been 10 years! I noticed them some number of years ago and have assumed it was a new, permanent addition to the encapsulation process.
